My favourite quote: " Only Lotus would comment, a spokesman saying: "The best thing would be to make all the races double points." "

More Lotus.

They're at Jerez today. Hope the car makes it to Melbourne.

Genuinely makes me annoyed seeing Maldonado in a race suit.

The stunt he pulled on Hamilton at Spa a couple of years ago pretty much sums the guy up.

Why wouldn't it?

Actually slightly disappointed by that... had the potential to look amazing, but those convoluted lines do nothing for the car's shape.

According to my mate at Willys, that's not the real livery. Says the real is way better than that.

^They'll still spoil it like Lotus did with their pastiche of the JPS livery.

In other news I see that the Red Bull broke down again today. According to the beeb the smell of burning was significant when it returned to the pits on the back of a truck.

Hardly surprised about Ecclestone's views - he's a nasty little fucker.
I can't help but think such extreme views probably come from some suppressed curiosity that just freak people out so it just manifests its self as hate or disgust.

He's a fucking arsehole anyone else would've been in the clink if they'd been found guilty.

Which, 'orrible man though he is, Bernie hasn't.

He has in Germany.

No he hasn't. He's been charged, but the trial hasn't taken place yet.

This.

My bad, he was told he was guilty by a judge that he'd definitely bribed people for personal gain. That is different and your right, just a matter of time I hope.

You may be thinking of this story:

Not guilty, just corrupt and a liar economical with the truth.

Or the fact that there is a Russian GP on the calendar this year. He doesn't give a fuck what anyone thinks. Look at the shit that went on in the Middle East.

Has there been/is there a gay F1 driver?

Not openly although there has been persistent chatter about Nico Rosberg.

I can think of a couple from decades ago but times were very different then and they had to be very discrete and I doubt we will ever know for sure.

We might not have got things right yet but when you look back things have changed hugely in the last 40 years.
